Successful upgrade / conversion from Mambo 2.5.1b to Joomla 1.0.4 - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support


just thought post did here, else thinking of doing in future.

this worked without hitch me, using overwrite function.  reason went pathway don't have decent ftp access server, transferring lots of files not doable.  can hoster expand files easily.

first off upgraded mambo 2.5.1b 2.5.3.  copied zipped file server, backed entire site (including databases), shut off site, expanded file, executed appropriate sql file, deleted "installation" directory, turned site on, things worked fine.  no issues.  note robot.txt overwritten, if have customisations of that, save copy.

then upgraded mambo 2.5.3 joomla 1.0.4.  same process.  copied zipped file server, backed entire site, shut down site, expanded file, executed appropriate sql file, deleted "installation" directory, turned site on (had editing configuration.php file, couldn't admin), things worked fine.  issue 1 of sections wasn't published, frontpage content didn't display, changed , works fine.

super. glad having experience upgrades. :)
